 Hello,

 when I was testing the xsnmp package (currently in in the submission
 queue) I noticed that the net-snmp +server startup item does not work.
 Attached you'll find the patch to fix this.

 For reference see
 {{{
 /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.net-snmp.snmpd.plist
 }}}

 Personally I'd like to see the server variant enabled by default. The only
 downsides are the additional bytes for the snmp daemon and library.

 This would resolve the linking problems for 3rd party componens like xsnmp
 that arise when MacPorts just installs the "regular" libnetsnmp and not
 libnetsnmpagent (due to missing +server). Then the MacOS system
 libnetsnmpagent library is linked instead. So one would end up with a mix
 of MacPorts and MacOS net-snmp libraries in one process.

 Thanks,
 Gregor
